Visible abs are mostly diet.

Although diet solely won't get you visible abs. You have to do ab-specific exercises, along with diet, to get visible abs.

Nope. Visible abs are a question of how much (or in this case little) fat you have covering your abs.

Obviously, having big, well trained abs will make it easier to reach that fat level because bigger abs will be visible easier, but the build of your abs hinges on more than just training, genetics are important as well. Some people have bigger abs without doing anything ab related, than you or I will ever have.

So, diet solely can get you visible abs, but no amount of exercise will get you visible abs, if you're fat enough and don't diet.

I don't know - I'm still not 100% sold on the whole "a perfect diet will get you visible abs". Maybe we're differing in how we define "visible abs", but I know from experience that a good diet will not give you a six pack without ab exercises.

Sure, if you do a ton of ab workouts, but have fat on your abdominal area, you won't have visible abs. Likewise (this is where we differ), a person that eats great but does NO ab exercises won't have visible abs (and by visible abs I mean a six pack).

I know that people make the argument that Africans have very little fat in that area of their body and have very defined abs, but you have to realize that while those Africans aren't doing specific ab exercises most likely, they are doing a lot of cardio during the day, whether it be running, jogging, running errands, lifting fruit crates, etc.

I guess when I think of visible abs I immediately think of a six pack - that might not be what you think of when you think of visible abs. I had to do a lot of ab exercises to get a six pack, and, when I further refined my diet to be very healthy, I noticed even more definition. I doubt I would have gotten a six pack from just diet alone - that's probably where genetics kicks in. I don't really want to try it.
